Guys I am 55, this is the best band I have ever seen.I still love my classics, but the songwriting... How does someone write songs in so many different styles and still have catchy choruses that have me bobbing my head to it. I have over 100 recommendations for you , but if you start with "Don't You Tell Me" from Yokohama , you won't hear me complain.
Simply and absolutely Perfect! No more words! Great react again guys! Have you already reacted to "Warning"? Believe me, it's absolutely Amazing! See you! 🤟🦊🇯🇵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do you need to look further to realize you just heard the best band on the planet? Great Vocals, drumming and MISA-Kanami going back and forth like no other. I think the subject of this ‘hate’ was a husband of Saiki’s friend who cheated on her. She just put herself in her friend’s place and wrote what she would feel. YIKES!!! Don’t get on Saiki’s bad side. I LOVE Band Maid.
I think you should watch the video of "Dice". Misa sounds great there. Or the official live version of "Play". Great reaction as always. Greetings from Argentina
Go back and watch MISA’s picking hand during her first solo segment. She’s hybrid picking like a country guitarist with the pick hitting the lower strings and she plucks upwards with her ring finger. Such a tiny detail amongst the entire performance? Plenty of love to go around. But that tiny move is one she’s developed as her career has matured. And of all the bassists I know and all the moves I know, she’s the first I’ve noticed that hybrid picks a bass regularly. She inspires 🤘🏽
No 27 of a 33 song concert and they have just as much energy as the first. Don't You Tell Me" from the same concert is ... well ... exactly what you have come to expect. They never cease to amaze.
Another *EPIC* performance by the Maids! ♥ I suggest these Band Maid songs: Thrill, Dice, Manners, Bubble, Blooming, Influencer, No God (live), Puzzle (live), Don't You Tell Me (live) & Onset (live)
Corallium from the Eggman concert. It's not on their official channel but I believe it's posted here. Next to 'alone' it's got my favorite vocal harmonies. And the instrumentation is always brilliant as usual.
Great reaction! Spot on call that the singer is standing up above the drummer while the bass and lead guitar are at the front of the apron. Now, go watch that same concert's official live "Don't You Tell Me". Spoiler alert: Those 3 switch places.
this is what they worked their a,s,s,es off for, 10 yrs to get here, big arena, from moving their own equipment and costumes in a borrowed van to 10,000ish people at Yokohama Arena, also Midori, Asami and Haruna from Lovebites were there
Usually Miku is the lyricist, but Saiki did write this one. She said she especially liked the way "I Hat You" felt in English. If you like the Guitar Bass Call & Response "Battle" check out 'Don't You Tell ME' LIVE. The orignal was pulled from TH-cam ahead of a DVD release and is now only on the Chinese site Bilibili, which can be a bit dodgy to pull a decent video from. But they brought it back for this same show, only instead of down front, it's up in the back behind the drums.
I just got the DVD of this show and let me tell you, the stage, big screen, and light show were all next level. Top tier. It was a beautifully filmed concert as well and, of course, the maids absolutely killed it. 😁🥰
This concert was the final show of their 10th anniversary tour which was over 70 shows over multiple countries. This particular show was over 3 hours long and they played 33 songs. This song was number 28 in the set, and they were still playing like women possessed.
"I Hate you, La, La, La! Now this is a break up song! I don't ever want to be on Saiki's bad side! Don't forget, she has a Barefoot Assassin to do her dirty work!
I love and adore the maids, MISA and Kanami are _great_ musicians who inspire me to get better myself, but best? Koga and Tomo-zo of Gachric Spin might have something to say about that, not to mention Miyu and HAL-CA of Asterism and Taka and Syu of Galneryus.
I think this group is currently the best rock group. The bass and lead guitar are the best, as you can tell right away. Please also notice the greatness of the drums. Please also notice the wonderful harmony between the main vocalist and side guitarist. What's most amazing is that the main guitarist has composed over 130 songs, and the side guitarists have written most of the lyrics. There is no bad work among them. BAND-MAID has a wide variety of songs that you can really enjoy.
I'm going to recommend a 2 song video, Manners, BLACK HOLE. During the Covid shutdowns Band-Maid streamed 5 concerts to their fans, 6 if we include the 12/25/21 acoustic concert. These 2 songs were from the 5/10/21 "Day of Maid" stream. The reason there are 2 songs is that there was a government program during the lockdowns to subsidize videos but they had to be over 6 minutes long so they put 2 songs together in one video. There is another video like it, Dice, Different. Manners is a very groovy type song. In BLACK HOLE Band-Maid threw a saddle on old Chaos and took him for a Sunday ride. I think you'll like them both.
Me duele aceptarlo pero Band-Maid acaban de desbancar a The Warning en mi Top personal, esto es Rock del bueno, las chicas Mexicanas ya se fueron más a lo comercial....
What happened to Band Maid? Don't Let Me Down and don't put a Moratorium on Band Maid. Just roll the DICE for another Thrill. You'll find Glory in any song you pick. It's a Puzzle why you don't do more. As a reactor to Band Maid you'll never be Alone. So Don't You Tell ME there's No God when you Unleash Band Maid. If you do you'll be my Bestie From Now On. And remember YOLO.
There's rock music and there's rock entertainment and there's BAND-MAID And BAND-MAID, these Rock Goddesses are in a league of their own and all their years of slugging it out playing across the world gives us these amazing women who absolutely command the stage (eg those gorgeous rock stances and moves) but they look as comfortable as if they were having a cup of tea at home. One thing for sure there's someone out there who won't be putting their hand up anytime soon to say hey this song is about me 😂 What a fcken band Po 👍🍻
That there is what you call a S-Tier band, song and performance! Every facet of this band is platinum coated diamond dipped in gold. Easily the best band in the world. Rock on guys 🤘
The "ten minutes of limp gymnastics" line gets to the guys every time. Girls hardly even notice but the guys all jump back, squeeze their legs together, and instinctively put a palm down to protect the crotch! Ahh ha ha! It cracks me up! With storm clouds on the screen behind her! Best scene of the concert, though, was in "Onset" when MISA went around the walkway until she found her mom at the rail and played her solo in front of her. Her mom was going berserk behind her! It was awesome!
So what was on the menu? As an aperitif the ladies served us 'Unleash!!!', the appetizers were 'Don't You Tell ME' and 'Hate?' and the whole concert is nothing short of a feast! 🍽🤭 The Maids are 5 exceptional chefs who know exactly how to serve something amazing. ❤🔥🤘🏻 _____________________ ♬ _"America invented rock.

[EDIT 2024-03-19 [Great reaction guys and Saiki wrote the lyrics, there was a lot of cheating occurring during covid lock down in the press at this time and Saiki was pissed. The singer LISA (a friend of Akane) was also affected by this as her husband was caught cheating and created a big scandal.
Actually the idea of Lisa being the victim in the song was first suggested by another fellow reddit member DocLoco. This is literally what he wrote. "It makes me think she may have been influenced by what happened to singer LiSA." So it's just a fan speculation, Saiki has never confirmed this herself.
@@glenkelley6799 Lisa posted a tweet of herself running into the maids while they were promoting the album conqueror in a music store, all 5 maids were in the photo but Akane was the one hugging Lisa tightly. They certainly know each others but seems like Akane is the one who is the closest to Lisa. Saiki still hasn't follow Lisa in both her IG and X up till this day but Akane does. Maybe Lisa is one of the cheating stories that inspired Saiki but I doubt the lyrics is based on her alone. Only the maids know the real answer. The ironic thing is that Lisa did get married with the cheating husband at the end. 😅
Upon reflection after you saying Madiac Monday I feel we could rewrite the song Manic Monday by The Bangles! 😅😅 On another note I freaking love Misa’s bass tone. So thick! And……another note, you guys need to check out the new band KOIAI and their live video “A New Picture.” It’s another all-star female Japanese band.
My favorite lyric "Ten minutes of limp gymnastics" They have another song "I still seek revenge" whoever she is singing about needs a protection from abuse order.
Great reaction. Can't add any more to what's already been said by others. They can certain perform and consistently overdeliver for their adoring fans. And no need to ever worry about experiencing 10 minutes of limp gymnastics from these ladies. 😝Cheers!
Not Saiki's boyfriend, the husband of a friend "allegedly". "10 minutes of limp gymnastics" Saiki's lyrics. Lesson don't piss of Saiki by hurting her friends
I grew up on rock from the 1970s to present. I love this band. I truly appreciate their song writing, musicianship, and singing. They have it all. Misa is my favorite current active bass player. Among the great bass players in rock, Misa deserves to be in the top tier in my opinion. One other thing--I have seen them live four times and they are stunningly beautiful in person. Musically for me. that is not important. But, as a man, I must admit, they are gorgeous. They also love their fans, and love each other. No egos, which I respect. I hope for another ten years of Band Maid!
I love the lyrics of this song… and as a dual purpose, if somehow this song doesn’t convince a person that these ladies are awesome, Saiki has already explained my opinion: “I hate you, Don’t give a $#!+ no more” But as men of outstanding taste, these words aren’t meant for you. Great reaction.
That guy fcked up so badly he got nuked from orbit by Saiki. And that wasn't even _her_ boyfriend! Imagine what happens to the guy who actually dares to cheats on her. . .

Another bass(Miss) and lead guitar(Kanami) duo in "Don't you tell me" from the same concert. Check it out, you'll be glad you did that!
Simply and absolutely Perfect! No more words! Great react again guys! Have you already reacted to "Warning"? Believe me, it's absolutely Amazing! See you! 🤟🦊🇯🇵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's amazing how Band-Maid has rewritten the laws of nature: Hate brings Love! 😖--->🎀--->😍 Thx, A-Lunch!
Muy pronto the Warning irá a Japón y estará con esta banda

Keen eye. Great observation. The closer you look and listen to this band the greater they get.

Band Maid and The Warning will have a Special Show in Japan in June 12!
I've watched this about 1,000 times and I'm still not tired of it. Best rock band on the planet. Bass? Watch NO GOD live if you haven't.
Japanese ladies Bands shows to the Western Bands dude how Bands should play live and to tortured the music instruments to the maximum.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Miku does an amazing job holding everything together underneath Kanami and MISA. She is becoming on hell of a rythem guitar player
Yes- Miku. Second guitar?, playing intros to Kanami's solo's (Puzzle?) and short lead fills within songs.
Maidiacs United 🤘🏽 🌹 🍌 🥃 ☕️ 💅

I'll recommend: Blooming
Akane is in my Top3 female drummers together with Pau (The Warning) and Haruna (Lovebites)
this is what they worked their a,s,s,es off for, 10 yrs to get here, big arena, from moving their own equipment and costumes in a borrowed van to 10,000ish people at Yokohama Arena, also Midori, Asami and Haruna from Lovebites were there
Justa a info. Asami, Midori and Haruna from LOVEBITES watched this live from the seats on Kanami's side.

From the same concert: "Don't You Tell Me", with another guitar / bass battle. This time at the top of the stage.
Great song and reaction…keepin coming
🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀
The bass/guitar challenges are epic. Fun to see Kanami charge at MISA...considering that MISA is about 7" taller than Mincho.
Who pissed off these ladies!
Love the lyrics and performance!!!
They own the stage, regardless of whether it is big, small or a real Arena.

Now that's how you should react to a Misa v Kanami battle!👍
Don't You Tell Me live, next if you haven't already!🤘
The Maids have the best guitar and bass duel in the music business.

Imagine being that dude who pissed off Saiki that much for her to write this song.
Just found you, look up puzzle or corallium,
Over a 3 hour show for a 10 year anniversary. I would definitely look into getting the show when it goes on sale at the end of the month.
Hate is an explosion of great solos, lyrics, production -- it's all there 🔥🔥
Band maid- Don’t You Tell Me
